MANILA, Philippines - Action in the first Handy Fix Super League National Barangay Championship resumes today with games scheduled simultaneously in Taguig, Cebu and Davao.
In Taguig, Barangay Bagumbayan takes on Barangay Tuktukan, Brgy. Maharlika battles Brgy. Cent, and Brgy. Tipas faces Brgy. Fort Bonifacio.
In Cebu, Brgy, Camputhaw meets Consolacion, and Brgy. Punta Princesa clashes with Brgy. Apas at the Don Vicente Sotto Gym.
And in Davao, Brgy. 74-A tangles with Brgy. Agdao, and Brgy. 76-A tests Brgy. 38-D at the Brgy. 76-A Bucana court.
Recently, Cebu City’s South District powerhouse Poblacion Pardo and Baranggay Pulpogan of Consolacion started their respective campaign on a high note following lopsided victories.
Pardo proved too much for neighboring Punta Princesa, 81-59, while Consolacion-based Pulpogan used a crippling full-court defense early to pull away, 89-55, against Apas in the main game.
The tournament, backed by Sapal Elastic Sealant and Waterproofer, will send the top two finishers of the Cebu City elimination to the regional finals against the champion teams from Lapu-Lapu City and Talisay City, according to Magna Prime GM Derrick Tan.
The national champion gets P25,000, 1st runnerup P15,000, 2nd runnerup P10,000, and 3rd runnerup P5,000.
